Figuring out what could be wrong based on what people post is a lot like
debugging code without a debugger.  Very challenging.  Here's my guess about
Michael's problem: I think he's relying on <MacHeaders> rather than including
all the .h files and since color.h isn't in MacHeaders, LSC doesn't recognize
color windows.  But my solution does assume LSC 3.0, so I could be wrong.
